I loved CSYA’s program. They provided amazing resources for helping you improve in computer science, no matter your level. Most importantly the people running it were extremely helpful, friendly and qualified. You could always reach out asking for help and someone could always help/give suggestions depending on what it was. Overall it was a very interactive, friendly and helpful experience. Will definitely be joining again!

I had a wonderful experience participating in Computer Science Youth of America's online summer program. The instruction provided during CSYA's CS1 class was both detailed and comprehensive, allowing students to develop a clear conceptual understanding of computer science as well as a strong grasp of programming fundamentals. Moreover, through engagement with carefully-designed lessons and homework problems targeting key programming concepts, students were able to develop a working understanding of and familiarity with Python, one of the most versatile and widely-used programming languages today. As part of CYSA's CSR class, students listened to and engaged with researchers studying a plethora of fields within computer science, allowing them to explore real-world problems and better understand how computer science is being used to solve them. Furthermore, all students involved in the program were invited to compete in the CSYA Hacks Hackathon, and CS1 students were given the opportunity to publish a report in The Science Times detailing their Hackathon projects. In short, CSYA is an avenue to developing a better understanding of computer science as a whole and accessing countless opportunities for further enrichment in the subject.

This program is bombing, and there is no way I'm not coming back next year. There are so many great things to achieve in CSYA in just a month, such as learning CS, earning a certificate, participating in the hackathon, and getting a chance to publish in the science times. I also made good friends with the people in the program, making my time here even more enjoyable. The mentors are fun and I've learned so many things from them. The schedule isn't tedious, and there are homework/refreshers after the lessons. The material provided to us, and there are many more opportunities from their sponsorships! Everyone is super friendly and well-connected through Discord. Can't wait to participate next year!
